Follow-up Reading for Everything Must Change

Here are some of the books that I believe would most strongly compliment a reading of EMC, listed under each crisis. Some of these books hadn’t been published when I was writing EMC, which explains why a few aren’t referenced in the text. There are so many excellent books that it’s hard to limit a list like this to thirty or so, but here’s a go:
Prosperity Dysfunction: The Crisis of the Planet
